What is wrong with meritocracy? Isn't it a system where your talent, effort and achievement are meaningful, and attributes like race, gender, wealth, sexual orientation etc. are irrelevant to your success? Isn't a meritocracy a platform that is equal to all?
Has someone redefined the terminology somehow?
I mean, I've always thought a meritocracy is a good thing. It does not matter "what" you are, it matters how good you are in what you do. And if you are not good at something, it is not due to your sex or race etc.
